Summertime
Start thinking about a summer job. Even if your family goes on vacation each year, there is enough weeks in the summer for your child to obtain a job. Think outside of the box, even if your child does not work for a major food chain or retailer, there is always the job of yard maintenance and baby sitting. If your child can play a musical, they can offer to play for a church or youth group if the regular musician is on vacation during the summer. This is a great time to look at what your child is interested in as it relates to college.
